Mark McKellier

Mark McKellier is a graphic designer with 30 years of experience in design for print. Mark now uses his love of typography, patterns and letterpress printing to design and make wood type fonts, ornaments, borders and replacement letters for printers who are ‘out of sorts’.

With a collection of over 50 cases of wood type and three printing presses (including a Harrild Pullmaster Proofing Press that used to belong to Her Majesty's Stationery Office) Mark originally made wood type for himself to replace missing letters, before realising he wasn’t the only printmaker with that problem. Combining modern CNC cutting technology with traditional methods (including a restored 1960’s Funditor printer’s table saw) he aspires to produce wood type to the standards of Delittle and Day & Collins.
